Connecticut Lottery launches 5 Card CashReply
Unfortunately, they are all going to $2 a ticket on new games. I read on TLC's last commissioner's meeting that All or Nothing is struggling right now. Well, it's $2 a tic. Four draws a day. Really? The odds on that game are 1 in 2.7 million for $250,000. The only good thing is that the overall odds are pretty good, which mean you have a decent chance to win your $2 back, and you get 2 chances to win, but I think the jackpot is too low. I played that game quite a bit last month, but I'm

Ohio Classic LottoReply
The one good thing about Ohio Classic Lotto is that once its jackpot exceeds $65M+, everyone who wants to will get plenty of chances to try and win since it's continues to roll in spite of it odds of 1:14M.

people snapping up $30.00 scratch-off tickets??Reply
The only limit is on the number of winners per pack. The lottery's internal documents actually stipulate that there will be no more than X winners per pack. So a pack of 125 may have no more than 30 or so winners, for example. That leaves 95 tickets to be losers. It varies game to game but is usually quite similiar at identical price points. Naturally, the more tickets in a pack, the more likely you will encounter a streak of X losers (depending on the odds).

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
Sorry to hear, man. I know scratch tickets are pseudo-random, but that's ridiculous for a $20 game. There should not be a losing gap longer than 5 tickets for $20 games, max. I've seen ridiculous losing gaps in California as well. Overall odds are getting worse for us (e.g., new Lucky Life series released this week).

Why is the Ohio Classic Lotto so difficult to win?Reply
There are no guarantees, the winning combination looked like a combination that someone might had played but no one did. The payout was normal so I'm guessing the number of tickets sold was too. Ohio lottery players generally aren't paying an particular attention to this game, it's only the ones that looking for the best odds of winning a $60M+ jackpot. Players from neighboring states probably don't think the drive to Ohio to buy tickets is worth the trouble.

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
They will probably re-order GRT because of its popularity. It's been re-ordered about 7 or 8 times already. The only reason the Fla Lottery will not re-order will be if they release another version of the game with an inferior payout schedule. It seems like a lot of the newer games are just rereleases of older games but with slightly worse overall odds. I guess they can do that when they keep getting record sales.

Here's a side-by-side comparison of the new $10 and $5 Lucky Life (LL) games.($2 and $1 are same as LFL) Yeah, less top heavy, better midrange, but still not a great game to play compared to regular games. And others have said, big hit on the top tier prizes odds:

30 dollar scratch tx in MA tempting me when I've been doing so well on my budgetReply
The odds are awful on that ticket. One in 25,200,000 chance of winning the $15 million jackpot for $30. If you bought thirty $1 tickets for Mega Millions, you'd have a better chance of winning $15 million. Still almost indistinguishable from 0 chance, but still.
